The JTYAF applied for funding from the scheme where the money raised by the sale of carrier bags is being used to fund thousands of local projects. Customers ‘vote’ for their chosen charity and the charity with the most votes wins £4,000, second place £2,000 and third place £1,000.

The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation (JTYAF) is delighted to have been selected as M & S Ferndown, Food Hall’s, Charity of the Year for 2017/18. M & S employees were invited to nominate a charity and after the votes were in, the JTYAF was thrilled to have been chosen as their charity partner.

The inaugural John Thornton Pram Race was a great success. Organised as part of Fete on the Field by Ferndown Rotary Club this event raised an amazing £1258 for the JTYAF! It was a lot of fun and everyone who took part thoroughly enjoyed it.
